antylope: Hi everyone!
I just wanted to add a new fix I've found. I've tried every patch online, I updated my AMD driver, I killed explorer a gazillion times but nothing worked. What did worked was this program called "DXWnd". It's a small soft that look to work with several old games.
The sourceforge link is (http://)
sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/
And a tutorial (because the developer didn't explain how the hell the program works) here: (

Btw, when importing a game profile, I've used the AOE II and it works perfectly.
Hope someone finds it helpful.
bye!
Actually, yes! This is what actually worked for me. Like many here, my game was working fine for some years ago but, recently, I decided to give it a try and it was all black and white and distorted, so it is like a problem with the newer graphics drivers (both for NVIDIA and Radeon, apparently). Is a real let down that GOG hasn't released a patch to fix this, honestly.
